Full Job Description
About the role
As a Ferric IC Test Engineer, you will gain exposure to the full product-life of Ferric's ICs by working with a diverse cross-functional team including IC designers, test & application engineers, engineering vendors, the fab, and our customers. Your primary responsibilities will be to take full ownership of ATE testing and characterizing Ferric's mixed-signal ICs, including creating ATE test plans, developing ATE production and characterization test programs for package level, and Known Good Die (KGD) testing. You will also support IC product qualification and production testing by our engineering vendors as ICs are productized. The position requires a strong background in mixed-signal IC testing, experience with ATE programming and standard circuit test lab equipment, object-oriented programming, and data-analysis skills. Applicants should be self-motivating and possess excellent problem-solving and analytical skills, as well as excellent oral and written communication skills with the ability to work well and contribute on a team.
What you'll do
Work with IC design and test teams to create and review test plans and test cases, including providing recommendations for DFT & TFQ, test & debug visibility, etc
Design and development of ATE HW
Develop ATE test program of KGD, and package level testing of Ferric's PMIC devices
Support and execute product qualification
Bench-level testing, characterization, and debug of full ICs and IC sub-systems as required
Drive engineering vendors for IC product qualification and production testing, including coordination of bench- & wafer-level tests, yield improvement, and test cost reductions
Interface with customers to review IC test measurement data and procedures
Assist with failure and root cause analysis
